: Oh, it's my fault that Microsoft can't release a functional product? Cool,
: I'll try to remember that.

: Look, I know what you're trying to say. I paid $60 for the game, so now
: Microsoft has my money and they have no obligation to do anything further
: with the game. Blah blah blah.

: I know that. I agree with that.

I don't know if that was the point. When did you pay that $60? Did you know the game was a mess? If not, why didn't you wait?

: My point is that they should fix the game, IN SPITE OF the fact that they
: have no obligation to do so, because it will make them look good and help
: alleviate the negativity surrounding the Halo franchise.

: You're looking at it as a product-by-product deal, as is Microsoft, but
: that's myopic. I'm looking at it as an entry in a long-term franchise that
: needs to be treated with respect and dignity if it's going to have a
: healthy life.

: Microsoft's profits will obviously take a hit if they sink more money into
: fixing MCC, but that's beside the point. They're not looking at it the
: right way.

: Fixing MCC is an investment in the future health of the franchise.

Whether they should do it or not, you should know that they're not going to do more than what they already have. This is because of time and money but also because of how many people and which people are working on it and because of the limitations of the game as it was shipped. The structure and strictures of patches on the xbone and how games are treated put up barriers at some point, and they were never going to redo and reissue the whole game.

: Not only are you an asshole, but you're apparently too stupid to understand
: economics too.

You're both assholes.
